Kirkcolm Primary parent council held their annual fundraising Christmas coffee morning on Saturday.
There was delicious home baking, Santat Claus, a wonderful raffle, Christmas crafts and some festive songs from the boys and girls.
In a short space of time over £1400 was raised to help fund projects to support all the boys and girls of Kirkcolm Primary.
This was further added to with a very generous donation of £2000! Wow!
Many thanks to all who supported this, helped or donated – what great community spirit!
